:'''It will allow people to know you are online!''' There is a list at the top of the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]] that shows the editors who are online. However, this bar doesn't show IPs, for both privacy and clutter reasons. Since you're an IP, people will not even know you are here unless you do something! Creating an account will solve that and people will then know when it is best to contact you. | :'''It will allow people to know you are online!'''

==Using this template== | |||
This is to be used on user talk pages for IPs who have done enough on the wiki to warrant an account and username. It is ill-advised to use it on someone who has hardly contributed, but there is nothing set on stone as to when it should be used; and as such should be treated on a case-by-case basis. | |||
There may be some cases when someone who is a user may be logged out or using a different device without logging in. Technically, this is [[SW:SOCK|sock-puppetry]], so don't let it concern those who wish to use this template in the first place. | |||
Add this to an IP's talkpage: | |||
